How can I include 2D information in IFC Export

Anonymous

I'm wondering if any of you have had experiences with 2D information and IFC.
My IFC exports works fine including all my gridlines. But I have some model informations which I would like to share as well.
In the IFC translator settings i've found the possibility to convert all annotations and 2D objects. But although i've ticked it on - no 2D information (except grid and zone stamp) is included in my IFC file.
I've made sure that I include all elements and export the entire project.
I've also tried to include dimensions, which should be able to convert to lines and text for IFC, but that was also a no show.

Is there anyone out there with experience in this field?

As you explained to me yourself Morten:

1. Save IFC file from plan view with fat marquee tool around entire project.
2. In Solibri you click: "Show Footprint Controls" (upper right corner)
3. Click "Show Compenent Footprint" (3rd control botton)

I now see wall and door swing lines etc.
